Russian anti-aircraft units have begun to record ADM-160B false air targets when repelling attacks by SCALP-EG missiles. Military expert Evgeny Damantsev explained how to effectively counter this threat.
The analyst clarified that equipped with advanced programmable Luneburg lenses, ADM-160B false targets are capable of imitating SCALP-EG and Storm Shadow missiles with an effective reflecting surface (ERS) coefficient of 0.03 m².
At the same time, it is difficult for the 92N6 illumination radars of the S-400 anti-aircraft missile systems (SAM) to identify SCALP-EG against the background of ADM-160B false targets.
But when approaching at a distance of less than 15 km, the 10ES1 thermal imaging sensor from the Pantsir-S1 anti-aircraft missile and gun system (SAM) is capable of selecting SCALP-EG among ADM-160B. There will be no oversupply of target channels with false targets.
Main characteristics of the Pantsir-S1 air defense missile system using the example of hitting an aircraft with an effective scattering area of 2 m² and a flight speed of 300 m/s:
- Missile armament in range - 1200-20000 m, in height - 15-15000 m
- Cannon armament in range - 200-4000 m, in height - 0-3000 m
- Number of simultaneously fired targets - 4
- Maximum speed of targets hit - 1000 m/s
